Chris, I use the scripts for IOPS I downloaded from this site

Also, OSW will convert information from iostat into a graph. There is java
program included with OSW that will create gif chart.

Ok, 

 

The subject pretty much says it all - I need some ideas on how to create an
IO profile (specific to the disk I/O) for a server over "x" amount of time
under the following constraints:

 

1.)    Grid Control is not installed, but DBConsole is

2.)    I have access to all standard system tools such as iostat, sar, etc

3.)    I have access to the database itself with AWR data collection enabled

 

I need to capture average reads & writes along with queue amounts and times.

 

I have used sar -dp for short intervals, but I have to modify the output
with vim and then import into excel to get it in a nice readable format.
There has got to be a better way.

 

Thanks,

 

Chris
